I am somewhat bemused by the nature of Senator Abetz's question here because I can remember the period in which the opposition, when in government, enabled employers to offer employment solely on the basis of an Australian workplace agreement that would leave workers disadvantaged.
With respect to the current matter and the current issue regarding the transfer of employment, the review of the Fair Work Act found no evidence of workers being worse off under the transfer of business.
